Part II of Gameplayer's examination of "When Good IPs go Bad"
"A few weeks back we took a look at ten IPs that we believe, at some point, have been treated rather shabbily by their parents and/or guardians. Mostly shockers that traded solely off previously amassed goodwill, plus the odd one that wasn't necessarily crap, just not as ace as its predecessor or that was somehow somewhat broken.
Now, flak jackets donned and armed to the toothy pegs with more weaponry bulging from our arsenal than all three Halo instalments networked together, we venture bravely back into the fray to bring you a sequel – a further ten IPs we believe have been hard done by."
CCG writes - "I completed planetarian: Snow Globe in around 90 minutes. Thankfully, the price is very reasonable, and it can only go lower if they offer it on sale, making it an entirely fair value. Given the relatively short runtime and low price, it's a nice companion for fans of planetarian HD. I'm also pleased to say that the moral concerns are fairly light as well. If you enjoyed planetarian, then I'd say that planetarian: Snow Globe is worth your time. While you could probably play this one first if you must, I would probably recommend reading planetarian HD before this title."
In this case, it's quantity over quality.
The Outerhaven writes: Split/Second was the explosive arcade racing game that outshone Ridge Racer and Burnout. That is, until Disney shut it all down before a sequel could happen.
Some odd inclusions in there. NFS Prostreet? Admittedly, I used to love the series in the Hot Pursuit days, and it has plummeted in quality since going all 'street' and stuff. But does it deserve a place in this list? Also, Pac-Man on the 2600? Give me a break.
